Wait, does that mean less network dependency? Sounds odd!

I think IaaS gives more control over the server.

But can you really choose any programming language?

I feel like the network dependency might be lower with PaaS, but I can't recall if that's really a significant difference compared to IaaS.

I practiced a question similar to this, and I think the flexibility in choosing programming languages is a key point for PaaS.

I’m not entirely sure, but I think scalability is a big advantage of PaaS over IaaS. It seems like the provider handles a lot of that.

I remember that PaaS is more about providing a platform for development, so I think it might have something to do with programming languages.

I'm pretty confident that the provider taking care of scalability is the main advantage of PaaS compared to IaaS. That seems like the most relevant answer to the question.

The user being free to choose the server the application runs on seems like a potential advantage of IaaS, not PaaS. I'll have to think this through carefully.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused on the differences between PaaS and IaaS. I'll need to review my notes to make sure I understand the advantages of each.

I think the key advantage of PaaS over IaaS is that the provider takes care of scalability, so that's probably the best answer.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'm not sure if requesting a Salesforce limit increase is the best approach, and developing custom Apex code seems like overkill. I'll have to think this through carefully.

I remember something about constructs, but that might be more related to object-oriented design than service-orientation.

I see your point, Casie, but for me, having lower dependency on the network with PaaS is more important.

But I prefer IaaS because I like to choose the server my application runs on.
